3. Overwatch

Overwatch, Blizzard’s latest video game, has no doubt taken the world by storm. The game already has more than 10 million players, having become a worldwide phenomenon. Plus like earlier Blizzard games, Overwatch boasts a colourful cast of characters and is also tons of fun to play.

And while this is a multiplayer-only online game with no single player campaign, it is still likely to keep players busy for a very long time due to its large roster of characters and its focus on casual fun. Matches can be completed in a couple of minutes, although this is a game that is easy to pick up and play but difficult to master. This is because players need to pick their characters carefully and choose the right strategy to counter the opposing team. It’s like a rock-paper-scissors game: a character like Torbjorn can cause havok with his turrets, but these can be taken out at a distance by sniper Widowmaker, for instance. All in all, few would argue that Overwatch has offered some of the best gaming moments of the year so far.
